'HIGH-RISE' THRILLER
LUKE EVANS & TOM HIDDLESTON
All you Luketeers and Hiddlestoners have probably already heard about the casting from the wildest dreams that just happened yesterday:
our beloved Welsh star Luke Evans has joined our dearest English star Tom Hiddleston in HIGH-RISE movie adaptation of J.G. Ballard's (EMPIRE OF THE SUN) novel. To be directed by DR WHO's Ben Wheatley, the film will be set within the concealing walls of an elegant forty storey tower block in which the affluent tenants are hell-bent on an orgy of destruction. Cocktail parties degenerate into marauding attacks on 'enemy' floors and the once luxurious amenities become an arena for technological mayhem ... In this classic visionary tale, human society slips into violent reverse as the inhabitants of the high-rise, driven by primal urges, recreate a world ruled by the laws of the jungle.

'CAPTAIN NEMO'
FROM 'SMALVILLE' CREATORS
And while Disney has put their work on 20,000 LEAGUES UNDER THE SEA
on status hiatus, Columbia Pictures might venture under the sea since
they have just bought the script for CAPTAIN NEMO from SMALVILLE
creators Alfred Gough and Miles Millar who are also set to produce the
underwater epic adventure together with the producers of MALEFICENT and
ALICE IN WONDERLAND. The movie will be a big screen adaptation of famous
Jules Verne story about CAPTAIN NEMO, a scientific genius who roams the
depths of the sea in his submarine The Nautilus, which he built on a
desert island.

Okay, High Rise sounds like a lot of fun. Can't wait to see how it turns out.
ReplyDeletehope they do it special and original in a visual way too!
DeleteSqueeeeeeeeee! You know why.
ReplyDeletetwas a hiddletastic post for you today :)
DeleteWe do love Tom Hiddleston and Luke Evans. :))
ReplyDeletemore than anything else in Tinseltown :)
DeleteLuke Evans looks rather dashing methinks :)
ReplyDeletealways :)
DeleteHigh Rise sounds interesting. I saw something on TV about the high rise of the future. Since areas like China are so overpopulated, the concept of building up would allow for businesses and residents to be built without using up land. In the same building you could eat, shop, and work without ever having to leave that building. It would be an entire city within itself.
ReplyDeletenot only eat, live, shop but also raise crops and food, you've probably seen those skyscrapers that have gardens on each of the floors, including fruit trees.
DeleteDracula untold sounds interesting.
ReplyDeletehope we get a trailer in next few weeks
DeleteOK. Sounds like a plan.
Deletemaybe even sooner! Just got the poster today and will post it later this afternoon
DeleteLuke Evans, another tasty treat! Nom nom

DeleteWell, I never heard of Luke Evans before, but he is certainly yum-o!
ReplyDeleteNever??? What scandal is this? Luke is the star of IMMORTALS, CLASH OF THE TITANS, THE THREE MUSKETEERS, and THE HOBBIT and he loves HOLLYWOOD SPY :) He;s so cute that he;s been congratulating me on my Birthdays four years in a row :)
